Arno Brecker I
2015
A striking close-up photograph of a classical marble bust depicting a young man with dramatically sculpted, windswept hair and a serene, idealized expression — strongly reminiscent of Hellenistic portraits of Alexander the Great. Shot against a neutral grey background, Listri's image emphasizes the sculptural volume and luminosity of the white marble through precise studio lighting. The work belongs to Listri's 'Fisiognomiche' series, in which the Italian photographer turns his lens on iconic sculptural faces with the same grandeur he brings to architectural interiors. The highlighted edition — 59 1/10 × 59 1/10 in, Edition of 5 — is the largest available format, making it a commanding, collector-grade statement piece.
